in geographic areas where different expressions of Christianity developed
in the ancient Near and Middle East have been determining factors in the
evolution of specific Churches? Encounters among Christians during Late
Antiquity and the Middle Ages resulted in fertile adaptations and
enrichments leading, through mutations and cross-influences, to the
emergence of new identities. Such interculturality provides a response to
the challenges of the dominating Byzantine, Persian, and Arabic cultures,
as expressed through intellectual currents, artistic influences, and
constructions of traditions.
The selected articles presented here, several updated by their authors, have
marked the field of Eastern Christian studies in recent decades. The
comparative approach enables the reader to better grasp the exceptional
impact of the cultural contacts among Christians in the East. This volume
aims to be a useful tool by offering a synthesis of the research
investigations and methodological approaches on Eastern Christianity as a
crossroads of cultures. |  Aggiungi al Carrello |
